Gottcha -- I keep forgetting that 'GPS' is shorthand nowadays for a multifunction navigation computer that has a GPS reciever builtin FWIW The first GPS I worked with took up most of a 4x6 foot equipment rack and only measured time differences converting these into a latlon was done by entering these by hand into yet another computer system and / or doing a quick slide rule calculation Never mind having a general purpose navigation routines builtin :-) Cheers Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
